VISITORS
Welcome! We are delighted that you have come to worship the Lord with us today.
If you are a guest, please fill out a visitor's card and place it in the offering plate
when it is passed. Prayer requests can also be made on the other side of the card.
For us communion isn’t only about his death, but his resurrection
and triumph over death and sin. His resurrection is the source of
the hope we have that God will one day fulfill; eternal life
through Jesus the Christ. We invite all who believe in Jesus to
share the Lord's Supper with us in remembrance of his great sacrifice and triumph on
our behalf.

Article
Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word
One of my all time favorite songs is by Elton
John. It's called "Sorry Seems to be the Hardest
Word." The title of that song is a fitting accolade that
many of us would do well to remember. It's
sometimes so hard to say sorry even when we know
we probably should.
How often do you think a marriage could be
saved, by either the husband or the wife, if one of
them would be the first to say sorry? How many
friendships have been completely destroyed over
something very small? In time the problem escalated
and then no one had the temperament to start the
reconciliation by saying that one little word, sorry.
Finally, how about churches? How many churches
have been divided, split and splintered because no
one had the courage or the will to say sorry.
In our lives you and I don't always have to be
right. Even when we think we are, it might do us all
some good to just say sorry sometimes to those we
disagree with. Elton sang that sorry was a hard word
to say. However, it really doesn't have to be. We just
have to humble ourselves, take a deep breath and try
it. The results may surprise you and get you a little
farther down life's yellow brick road. Mike Lisle
